About this study

Official title: Usability and HbA1c Method Comparison Study Using Lay Person Micro-Blood Specimens

This is a study to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of Micro-Serum/Micro-Blood (finger Stick) Specimen Collection as compared to samples obtained by standard venipuncture (blood taken from the arm vein).

Read the detailed description

This is a study to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of Micro-Serum/Micro-Blood (finger Stick) Specimen Collection as compared to samples obtained by standard venipuncture (blood taken from the arm vein). The information and data obtained will be used to finish development of a convenience kit that allows doctors to provide their patients a method to have their blood tested for clinical laboratory tests in the convenience of their home without having to visit the doctor's office or clinic.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Usability and HbA1c Method Comparison Study Using Lay-Person Micro-Blood Specimens

    To establish that when using capillary blood collected in the Home Access Collection Cassette, lay-users can obtain HbA1c results equivalent to results from professionally-collected samples

    Measured: Outpoint measured within 3 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing A1c, Self-collection, Blood sample in people with Diabetes, run by Home Access Health Corporation at 2 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Apr 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Usability and HbA1c Method Comparison Study Using Lay-Person Micro-Blood Specimens (time frame: Outpoint measured within 3 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 21 Apr 2014.
